I wish there was a better way to play Hallucination Only Unknown
Hello again everyone, console player here.
Unknown is one of my favorite original killers released in a while. Cool cosmetics, voice lines, personality, lore, etc. The only part about the character I don't jive with at all happens to be the most important part from a gameplay standpoint, their primary ability. UVX sucks for me, I've never been good with Ranged Killers and the precision required for certain shots at higher levels of play is mostly what puts me off them.
That said, the hallucination aspect of the killer is some of the most fun I've had with the game in awhile, especially with Insidious (a sentence I'd never thought I'd say). If the circumstances are right, you can almost become something of a hall of mirrors killer that makes survivors constantly question if the hallucination they're 8 meters away from is about to pull a funny.
Now to be fair, there are already a lot of great Hallucination addons that make this ability even cooler, but I wish there was an extreme option that Disabled UVX entirely in favor of making an entirely different flavor of Unknown, almost like Scratched Mirror Myers changing a couple key mechanics to completely change the playstyles.
Just a simple purple that increases the Hallucination cap and spawn rate, but disables their ranged ability. I don't care if it'd be a nerf to his overall strength, I think it'd be a pretty neat way to enable an entirely different style of play for him.
Thoughts? I feel like this is a very specific request but I don't know if there are any other players out there who feel the same.

But muh Insidious plays 🥺

They could always make a addon that disables uvx but buffs hallucinations.

I'm always down for more play styles. I personally love Uvx though so I hope it'd just be an addon thing

Oh definitely, I wouldn't want players who like UVX to have that taken away from them. I'd be perfectly happy with an Addon that enables this playstyle. There's still a lot of cool combo's that could be had with OSS Report, Blurry Photo, Game Cartridge, etc.

Can't you already kinda do this with iri OSS report and the green newspaper?
You get to teleport more often and should be spawning hallucinations much more frequently. I know some people try to use the footcast but that's not as good as it looks it takes away 5 seconds not 15.

I would argue OSS Report actually makes you use UVX more because it limits how many Hallucinations you can have out. Green Newspaper is good, but I haven't been able to consistently use it to the point it feels like I can use them as much as I'd want or to the point it feels deserving of being the whole killers power, which it obviously isn't since there's still full access of UVX, I'm just too stubborn to use it.

I thought that was the iri film that did that? The report I think lets you teleport more and gives the after image a terror radius and red stain.

My mistake, I haven't slept in forever lol. I just wish there was an Addon that was based around making the entire power hallucination based rather than just strengthening it. OSS Report is extremely good, and def the best addon for basing around Hallucination builds, but doesn't quite go all the way.
